Documents handed to Bribery Commission goes missing

The information and documents pertaining to a vehicle spare parts racket in 2017 which was given to the Bribery Commission has now disappeared, said the Convenor of the ‘Voice against Corruption' Wasantha Samarasinghe.

He said when he went to the Bribery Commission recently to inquire into the progress of the investigation, he had discovered that all the documents were missing.

Samarasinghe said only the initial complaint lodged by him was there and it was ironic that thieves had stolen the documents from an institution that is entrusted with netting in thieves.

He said he had notified the officers at the bribery Commission to immediately locate the documents and notify him but so far he had not received any response.
